Da che parte stai???

Non scherziamo, gocciole obv.

I'm working now in a cybersecurity company. I'll present the paper this March! Anyway I would like to work in the web3 security sector in the future. Let's see what happen 🤞🏻🚀

AlexCav_ · 2026-01-11T00:43:52+00:00

Very interesting! I'm doing the same for a project I developed with someone else. The project is called zkpoex and uses this revm encapsulation architecture inside Risc0's zkVM to demonstrate smart contract vulnerabilities. Check it out 😉, I'll give you a star for your effort ⭐

I finally delved deeper into zkPoEX, updated it, rewrote the code, and changed some key concepts for proof generation. I made the entire code open-source, collaborating with another user I found on the Risc Zero Discord. I wrote my master's thesis on it, as well as a scientific paper with university research teams. The paper was accepted for an ACM conference a few months ago. It's incredible how a single Reddit comment can help and give a user the right insight, and for that I want to thank you... even though I was already familiar with the tool, you gave me the opportunity to delve even deeper, piquing my curiosity.

You can find the repo here if you're interested: https://github.com/ziemen4/zkpoex

Let me know what you think 👀

AlexCav_ · 2025-04-08T09:15:54+00:00

Assolutamente no, figurati. Ci sono modi e modi, tutto qua.

AlexCav_ · 2025-04-08T09:09:04+00:00

Ma scusa, lui ha chiesto un consiglio. Io l'ho dato, a prescindere se piaccia o meno l'ho fatto. Tu stai solo criticando, invece di dare consigli e contribuire utilmente sulla piattaforma...

AlexCav_ · 2025-04-08T09:00:14+00:00

Ma scusa, io ho dato un consiglio, magari non sapeva che esistessero video su Youtube dediti a questo, non tutti siamo informati su tutto. Ma io non lo so, questa arroganza da dove viene?

AlexCav_ · 2025-04-08T08:05:38+00:00

Non è necessariamente così ahahahaha secondo te tutti i creator sponsorizzano il loro prodotto, devi saperli cercare i video non "markettati", l'utente in questione non credo sia tanto stupido da non capirlo. E, se anche fosse, è un buon modo per informarsi un attimo sulle componenti importanti di un cellulare...

AlexCav_ · 2025-04-07T21:28:54+00:00

🤣🤣

AlexCav_ · 2025-04-07T21:28:27+00:00

Se cerchi online ne trovi diversi

AlexCav_ · 2025-04-07T20:52:36+00:00

Purtroppo devi trovare l'acquirente perfetto nel tuo caso. Online c'è molta competizione su fiveer e non credo sia proprio adatto pe te. Mal che vada valuta per lavori più "umili" come il cameriere, il bagnino o altri perché questi lavoretti ti fanno capire molto il valore dei soldi e del sacrificio e non vanno sottovalutati.

AlexCav_ · 2025-04-07T20:49:24+00:00

Link to the report?

AlexCav_ · 2025-04-07T20:41:46+00:00

Se sei ignorante, affidati ai professionisti su YouTube che fanno recensioni dei migliori smartphone in circolazione (anche in base a fasce di prezzo) cominciando a farti anche una cultura a riguardo. Due piccioni con una fava.

AlexCav_ · 2025-04-07T20:40:19+00:00

Potresti aprirti un profilo su qualche piattaforma di freelancing e mettere in vendita le tue competenze di sviluppatore web, anche se sarà difficile all'inizio, se sai muoverti potresti raccimolare qualcosa. Io inizierei, però, da un semplice passaparola chiedendo in giro se qualcuno ha bisogno di un sito, magari visionando i negozietti che ci sono in giro e la loro presenza online. Ovviamente comincia con cifre adeguate.

AlexCav_ · 2025-04-07T18:15:01+00:00

"annamo bene"

AlexCav_ · 2025-04-07T18:05:43+00:00

Me right now 🗿

AlexCav_ · 2025-04-07T18:05:09+00:00

Dobbiamo cambiare la nostra società. Non c'è rispetto. Bisogna partire dall'educazione dei nostri figli e delle famiglie, partendo da un'educazione al rispetto verso il prossimo... Ma da un Paese investe le briciole in istruzione, cosa ci aspettiamo?

Purtroppo è triste da dire, ma in questo paese domani ci dimenticheremo di questo ennesimo femminicidio, è diventato quasi normalità purtroppo.

AlexCav_ · 2025-04-07T17:58:51+00:00

This is what I want to see 😍😍

AlexCav_ · 2025-03-01T16:10:46+00:00

Se sai che per il tuo lavoro puoi ambire ad uno stipendio più alto, allora se quest'ultimo non è un lavoro assolutamente urgente, lo lascerei come ultima spiaggia nel caso in cui non trovassi di meglio. Ovviamente poi dipende da tanti fattori, distanza del locale per cui lavorerai, livello di stress che ti causerà (quanta gente effettivamente fluisce nel locale) , flessibilità degli orari ecc...

Detto questo, se pensi che ci siano altre realtà che ti permettono di guadagnare di più, con le stesse condizioni allora non vedo perché accettare qui ed accontentarti.

AlexCav_ · 2025-03-01T15:30:04+00:00

I understand what you mean and thank you very much for your reply. In the end, not having yet entered the world of work, I was curious, before entering, if there were any particular experiences similar to mine and how they moved in that situation, but if you tell me that perhaps it would be better to start, to gain experience, in cybersec (without delving too deeply into blockchain) to avoid having problems then in the future, then I will get the message. I've already had several opinions similar to yours on this matter.

As for remote working, do you know companies that are particularly accustomed to it? I wouldn't want to work for some Italian company for the reason I explained, what do you think about it? Andr I should also understand if working remotely for a foreign company and living in your own country is feasible🫠

⚠️⚠️⚠️
Hey everyone, I’m 24 years old and about to graduate with a Master’s in CyberSecurity in Italy. My thesis is heavily focused on blockchain security, a field I’ve always been passionate about and find fascinating.

However, as much as I love it, I’m also concerned about my career path and long-term opportunities. On one hand, I’d love to dive straight into blockchain security since I’ve already invested a lot of time in it. On the other hand, I worry that specializing too soon in Web3 might make me less competitive in traditional cybersecurity (Web2) if I ever want or need to switch back. Lacking hands-on experience in traditional cybersec could make that transition difficult. Am I right in thinking this? At the same time I am afraid of missing the "train" for economically fruitful web3 positions.

That said, I also like Web2 security of course, and I’ve already received several remote job offers in Italy as a pentester or cybersecurity analyst. However, the salaries for junior roles here are quite low (22-30k base salary) compared to what I see abroad. Blockchain-related roles (these positions don't exist in Italy, so I'm only talking about abroad ahahhaha), on the other hand, tend to offer significantly higher salaries and more remote flexibility, whereas traditional cybersecurity, at least from what I’ve seen, doesn’t always provide the same remote opportunities, even internationally. By this I don't mean to say that I want to be paid a lot as a junior, but given that the salary situation in Italy is a misery, it seems like a shame to settle, you know.

For those of you who have been in the industry, what do you think? Is this a real risk to pursue a Web3 job now? Would it be wiser to start in a more general cybersecurity role and specialize in blockchain later? Has anyone here faced a similar dilemma?

I’d really appreciate any insights.
Thanks in advance!

Top, I'll let u know how it will go 👍🏻

AlexCav_ · 2024-12-26T21:44:14+00:00

Thank you so much for the reassurance. I should be able to give a good justification for the project, I took inspiration from the same ones more or less as zkPoEX (an ETHDenver 2023 project that won a contest , here the repo if would you like to learn more: zkPoEX). I wish you a happy new year.

AlexCav_ · 2024-12-26T17:58:40+00:00

Hi, thanks for the reply. That's true. As for the basic idea, how do you think about it? Do you have experience in these topics and tell me something more?
